confirmed a director of bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms in six years, they should confirm your u.s. attorney from minnesota, todd jones, who is here today, and who has been nominated for this post. these are common sense measures supported by democrats, republicans, and independents, and in many of them are response gun owners. we're seeing members of both parties putting aside their differences and work together to make many of them a reality. but if there is one thing i've learned over the last four years, it is that you can't count on anything in washington until it's done. and nothing is done yet. there has been a lot of talk, a lot of conversation, a lot of publicity, but we haven't actually taken concrete steps yet. the last week the senate held its first hearing since newtown on the need to address gun violence and the best way to move forward. the first people to offer testimony were gabby giffords and her husband mark kelly. they talked about how a complex problem like this has no single solution, bu still had a ten-round limit on magazines, for example, the gunman who sho

>> according to u.s. coast guard investigators, they have preliminarily determined the fire on board the carnival "triumph" was caused by a leak in a flexible hose that served as a fuel oil return line for the ship's number six engine generator. lieutenant commander theresa hatfield told reporters today, the fuel sprayed up and touched a hot surface, which started the fire. investigators say the crew did a good job in extinguishing the flames and so far have interviewed 21 passengers and crew members and are continuing their on-site investigation. they expect that to be wrapped up by the end of the week. now, the coast guard commander says they're also looking into why the ship was inoperable even though some of the backup systems were working. they anticipate it will be six months before everything is completed. and the bohemian maritime authority are the lead investigators on this case, since the ship is registered in the bahamas. >> did the country at the time, i know you covered this, you were up ther

if you're ali abdullah saleh of yemen, first you come to the u.s. to recover from old bombing injuries. then back home in yemen, you announce the opening of a museum all about -- yourself. yes, come one, come all to sunny sanaa, to see such priceless museum pieces of large portraits of mr. sala, and quite amazingly, the suit he was wearing during the aforementioned bombing. as well as some shrapnel that was recovered from his body. wow. the curator says the museum is almost ready to open. as soon as they get the lights and air conditioning sorted out. i suppose this is progress of a kind. most dictators would probably keep all the stuff for themselves. the correct answer to our gps challenge question was -- d, king umberto ii was the last king of italy. his reign was just over a month long. it ended in june 1946 after the republic was formed. thanks to all of you for being part of my program this week, i will see you next week.

and if u.s. regulators allow it, usair will take over bankrupt american airlines creating the world's biggest airline in the process. that deal is good for investors, but passengers worry airfares will shoot up as competition disapears. but take a look at this. just after airline deregulation came into effect, there were 20 major airlines in the united states. by 1990, there were only 12 major airlines in operation. today just seven and with "uss -- usair and american merging we'll be down six. usair and american don't have a lot of overlapping routes or hubs. in the end, there will only be about out routes out of the 9,000 or so that will be served by one airline. they may see fares go up. but look at this. since 1979, prices for an average domestic economy airfare have dropped from $579 then to $365 now, though they have started to tick up a little bit lately. so much for that myth that merging airlines causes prices to go up. thanks for watching this week. find me on facebook at facebook.com/a
